it's going to keep the heaviest snow away from places like manhattan and long island and they're going to get plenty of snow there and earlier in the day, they had basically a mix of some rain for new york city and long island. right now, it looks like it's all snow for manhattan, kind of a mixture along long island and some snow as well. and in terms -- the whole night is going to be for the heaviest snowfall and that is looks like the eastern section of connecticut and through rhode island. i think providence might be the place that gets the majority of the snow here and that does not mean they're not going to have blizzard conditions and they don't have going to do with the snow but everything to do with sustained winds of 35 miles per hour for a few hours there and reduced visibility. bull's eye from this particular nor'easter would be providence and into the western suburbs of boston and that is how it's looks now. maybe as much as two feet in some places of snow and will, how would you like to shovel two feet of snow off your driveway? >> i had enough to do with two or three inch
